Psalm 72 | Give the King Your Justice

Описание: (lyrics below)

"Let Justice Run" is a folk-indie worship song inspired by Psalm 72, a prayer for a righteous King whose reign brings justice, peace, and compassion for the poor and the forgotten.

This psalm looks forward to a kingdom where mercy flows like rain on the fields, where the needy are defended, and where blessing reaches “from sea to sea.” Sung as both prayer and hope, this song invites us to long for God’s justice—not as power, but as restoration.

“May he judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with justice.”
— Psalm 72:2 (ESV)

May this song lead your heart toward the goodness of God’s reign and the quiet assurance that His justice is always rooted in love.

Verse 1
Give the crown to mercy
Give the throne to truth
Let the strong be gentle
In the way they rule

Let the poor be lifted
Let the broken stand
Teach our hands to govern
With a faithful hand

Pre-Chorus
Not by force or fear
But by what is right

Chorus
Let justice run like water
Let peace take root in the land
May the hills bring righteousness
And hope rise where we stand
Let the needy be defended
Let the cries be heard
Blessed be the King who listens
To the least of us

Verse 2
May He judge with wisdom
Every heart, every name
May the cause of the humble
Never be in vain

From the dust of the cities
To the edge of the sea
Let His reign be kindness
Let His rule be peace

Pre-Chorus
Till the moon is gone
Till the sun runs out

Chorus
Let justice run like water
Let peace take root in the land
May the hills bring righteousness
And hope rise where we stand
Let the needy be defended
Let the cries be heard
Blessed be the King who listens
To the least of us

Bridge
May His name endure forever
Like the light that never fades
Every nation, every people
Find their blessing in His name

May abundance fill the valleys
May the earth be glad
All creation sing together
For the good He has

Final Chorus
Let justice run like water
Let mercy shape the way
From the corners of the cities
To the fields of grain
Let the poor be remembered
Let the weak be strong
Blessed be the King of glory
Blessed be His song

Outro
All praise belongs to Him
From age to age, Amen, Amen
